Randomly, our iDRAC credentials will stop working. I need to re-assign the credential profile and then everything works until it randomly stops after a few days.
Only thing of interest in my configuration is that I am not using a "root" account for connecting to iDRAC and rather a custom account I setup on all of the iDRACs.
This is the first I'm hearing of this issue. What iDRAC firmware are you working with? Do you know what servers are being affected? I'd like to start narrowing the scope so that we may be able to identify a path forward.
That's pretty wild. I'm going to get an environment deployed to test it out. For the closest replication, would you mind sharing what OS you've got running on the hosts with SupportAssist Enterprise?
Still poking at this trying to replicate. I'm working with the latest iDRAC firmware right now, because the response would just be "Update the iDRAC" if we didn't. If the behavior doesn't replicate, I'll down rev it and test at the same iDRAC version as you. So far, 3.30.30 has not lost credentials in SAE.
I've not been able to replicate this behavior with iDRAC 3.30.30.30. I'll down-flash it and test on 3.21.21.21, and follow up if the credential loss happens to me. Otherwise, I'd expect one of the previous steps to help.
